Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Background. Many methods with different analytical sensitivity and clinical specificity have been developed to detect the presence of high-risk (HR) types of the human papillomavirus (HPV) in cervical samples. The Hybrid Capture-II assay (HC-II) is broadly used for primary screening. In addition, several HPV genotyping assays, based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods, display a higher sensitivity than HC-II and are also used in screening programs.Method. We evaluated the performance of three HPV DNA tests, namely HC II, Linear Array HPV genotyping assay (LA) and a bead-based multiplex genotyping assay (TS-MPG) which is a laboratory-developed method for the detection of HPV in 94 women with ASC-US and in cytological samples from 86 women with a negative Pap test.Results. The TS-MPG assay increased the HPV prevalence compared to LA and HC-II. The HPV DNA prevalence was greater for ASC-US with the TS-MPG assay (46.2%), compared to LA (36.3%) and HC-II (29.7%) assays.The HPV DNA prevalence was greater for the control group with the TS-MPG assay (32.1%), compared to the LA assay (10.7%).Two ASC-US women who were HPV DNA negative by HC-II and positive by TS-MPG or/and LA assays, had lesions that progressed to low-grade squamous intraepithelial and high- grade squamous intraepithelial lesions.Conclusion. This study shows that the TS-MPG assay exhibited higher analytical sensitivity compared to LA and HC-II for the detection of HPV DNA, which reduces the potential to incorrectly identify a woman's HPV infection status.
